A picture’s worth a 1,000 words (The Prices Write, September 2019, part 1)

In August we worked with our colleagues and two summer teams who came to Croatia from Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Florida and London, England. Probably over 250 Roma kids attended the various events in four different locations in Croatia. These included Vacation Bible School-type outreach, day Bible camp, and an overnight Bible camp. Through these outreaches the Roma children, teens, and some received Bible teaching in the form of skits, Bible teaching, singing songs, doing hand crafts and coloring pages, small group discussion time and games. Since pictures are worth 1,000 words, we are dedicating this newsletter to giving you a glimpse of the summer through pictures.
